    Overall, the group enjoyed their visit to the Coconut Lagoon; the food was great. The only negative was somewhat slow service. All in all the group would certainly come here for dinner again and recommend it to others.

    Went there on our anniversary, heard good things .arrived took them over 5 minutes to acknowledge we were there, Got seated upstairs and later found out no bathroom upstairs only downstairs , I have a broken leg so that was difficult. We had set menu $ 90 each , the food was bland or over spiced for our taste .the portion were small it was more tasting menu. Wasn't expecting to be treated as royalty but as a guest make a little bit was fuss it was wedding anniversary and I had told before. I am glad I tried it but it will not be my good to Indian fusion food.well you can't please everyone . It was busy so I am sure some people will disagree but that is ok

    Just walking in the aromas start to hit you and then as the food comes each bite was a treat for the taste buds. The service staff were lovely and attentive. The food was Devine and despite the neighbourhood and the look of the building from the outside. It is absolitely beautiful on the incite. A very modern twist with those classic Indian flavours. And don't worry about the spice. They were able to tone it right down for those that wanted that.

    One of my top 5 meals ever in ANY restaurant. I cannot emphasize the quality and service at this establishment. We had the 7 course tasting menu and it is absolutely worth every penny (Ya... I'm a Boomer LoL!). From the timing, which was impeccable, to the descriptions we were given for each course, this place shines far above and beyond most restaurants (of ANY kind) I've been to.

    Great experience overall, once again! We came here last year around this time (we live in Boston but come here to visit relatives) and during our visit we opted to come here again. Everything was again very good. The naan is superb, the KFC (kerala fried chicken) is kitschy but very tasty! Everything across the board was delicious except for the sauce that came with the scallops (which wasn't bad but it seemed odd, no one knew what to make of it and the person eating that dish avoided the sauce). Service was a little slower this time, but that's like most places these days that are suffering from not having enough staff. Ambiance is very pretty, understated, and nice - still a bit noisy so I'd still like to see more sound absorbers. The ones they have are great, you don't notice them, but they might be too high up to make a big difference. We'll definitely be back again!
